A singing Woodlark was recently found by Graham Andrews (at an undisclosed Island location) and thanks to Graham providing info I got to experience it today. I often encounter a few vis mig 'flyovers', especially during October/November, but to hear a singing individual at this time of year is quite novel, especially on the IOW; places like the nearby New Forest still have healthy numbers breeding as far as I'm aware. Got some some record shots and something of a sound recording (an ill-timed overhead plane didn't help). Plus, after so many wet dreary days this winter it was nice to experience some sunshine too.
